I saw this at the midnight opening, after seeing Thor and Captain America for the first time immediately beforehand (it was an all-day marathon, but I had to leave for a bit so I missed Incredible Hulk and half of each Iron Man movie; I've seen both Iron Man movies but haven't seen the Incredible Hulk). Anyway, I freakin' loved it. The last battle was just one mind-blowingly cool moment after another; truly one of the greatest action sequences I have ever seen in a film. A great deal of that was due to how the characters were treated and used during the battle and for the entire movie preceding it. Just a whole hell of a lot of fun.

All three movies I saw in a row were in 3D, which is the most I've ever seen of the format in one sitting (with 15-minute breaks in-between, but still). I thought it was used really well in all three cases - it definitely helped it feel like you were more "in the world" of the film without being ridiculous. After a while, I forgot I was watching 3D - not because it was used so sparingly, but just because I got used to it. If all 3D releases were as good as this (or TPM, for instance), then I don't think people would take issue with it as much as they still do. (I rarely see 3D movies unless that's a major part of the draw, partly since the level of quality is still such a crapshoot.)

I have a feeling they'll stick to the Marvel characters as opposed to DC, but keep those high hopes anyway.

I finally got around to seeing this last Wednesday. Definitely lives up to the hype. I loved all the action in it of course, but the real surprise was how well they managed to mesh all these superheroes together without one or a few dominating the whole movie. There was just enough of everybody. I wasn't sure how well Loki would be for the main villain, but that was put to rest right away. He has a Hannibal Lecter quality to him. Well I can't wait for the next one.

It took you long enough!

Yeah, Loki was a good villain, but the next film has WAY more potential IMO, especially with the guest appearance at the end of this film!!!

Its a rather busy time of year for me so I saw it later than I wanted to. I hope I'm not asking a dumb question, but who is that guy at the end? I thought they were going to bring back the Red Skull since he disappeared in a similiar way to Loki. The creature they show doesn't look like him, though.
